Fellowships, Awards, and Grants, Oh My! A Panel Discussion on Research Funding for Graduate Students

CALL FOR PAPERS:
45TH INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON MEDIEVAL STUDIES
MAY 13–16, 2010
WESTERN MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY/ KALAMAZOO

Fellowships, Awards, and Grants, Oh My! A Panel Discussion on Research Funding for Graduate Students

Securing research funding is a critical part of any graduate student's career, even more so in today's difficult economic climate. This panel, sponsored by the Medieval Academy Graduate Student Committee, is intended to give graduate students practical guidance about the funding process. We are looking for speakers who have experience on fellowship selection committees, have recently recieved a major fellowship/grant and can talk about the process, or who have any other relevant experience in the area. This will be a panel discussion, so participants will be expected to speak for 15-20 minutes each, followed by a general discussion.

Please send short panel proposals to Kristin Pinyan (kcpinyan@eden.rutgers.edu) by September 15th. Please forward this to anyone who might be interested!
